Red is refracted the least and violet is refracted the most
Energy to lift something =
(mass of the object) x (gravity) x (height of the lift).
BUT ...
This simple formula only works if you use the right units.
Mass . . . kilograms
Gravity . . . meters/second²
Height . . . meters
For this question . . .
Mass = 55 megagram = 5.5 x 10⁷ grams = 5.5 x 10⁴ kilograms
Gravity (on Earth) = 9.8 m/second²
Height = 500 cm = 5.0 meters
So we have ...
Energy = (5.5 x 10⁴ kilogram) x (9.8 m/s²) x (5 m)
= 2,696,925 joules .
That's quite a large amount of energy ... equivalent to
straining at the rate of 1 horsepower for almost exactly an
hour, or burning a 100 watt light bulb for about 7-1/2 hours.
The reason is the large mass that's being lifted.
On Earth, that much mass weighs about 61 tons.
Answer:
20 kg
Explanation:
remember the equation f=ma.
100 N=force
5 m/s2= acceleration
so you need to divide force by acceleration: 100 N/ 5 m/s2= 20 kg, to get the mass.
Answer:
answer is 10km
Explanation:
use "S =Ut "
S=distance U=velocity t =time
no need to convert time into seconds as the velocity has given in meters per minute
Answer:
B. 30 m down
Explanation:
In physics we have two types of quantities:
- Scalar quantity: it is a quantity which only has a magnitude (e.g: mass and time are scalar quantities, since they only have a magnitude)
- Vector quantity: it is a quantity which has both a magnitude and a direction (e.g: velocity is a vector quantity, since it has a magnitude (the speed) and a direction)
In this problem, we have:
A. 100 ounces of water --> scalar (this is a volume, which has only a magnitude)
B. 30 m down --> vector (this is a displacement, which has both a magnitude (30 m) and a direction (down)
C. 88 mi/s --> scalar (this is a speed, which has only a magnitude)
D. 45 gallons in a bucket --> scalar (this is a volume, which has only a magnitude)
So, the correct option is B.
